Is Yasir Qadhi Running for U.S. President?

[Omar del Sur]

Yasir Qadhi is happy to let the world know how patriotic he feels towards the US.

 

[Omar del Sur]

Yasir Qadhi loves the West so much he wants to change Islam to Westernize it

laa ilaaha illa allah he's a jokemans wlhi

First mission as president will be to send out armies to find and destroy any evidence of ya'juj and ma'juj.

Idk.

I think Sheikh Sa'di in his book on the subject said the yajuj and majuj are the US, England, Russia and China.

You should be careful of how you speak about him. Sheikh Sa'di was a respected scholar of the sunnah.

[Jaha]

Lol no chance running as US president but the Muslim world needs more people like Yasir qadhi!

 

[Omar del Sur]

If anyone is unaware- one of Sheikh Sa'di's most well-known students was called Sheikh Uthaymeen. Sheikh Sa'di also wrote an excellent tafsir that I urge people to read.



you- whoever you are reading this- are missing out if you haven't read this tafsir. If you can't get it now, I urge you to mark it and get it later.

I actually came because I wanted to post this



it is tragic for people to go with someone like Yasir Qadhi versus the real scholars. Yasir Qadhi is blatantly a sellout to the West.

Instead of posting cut and paste videos to paint Yasir Qadhi in a certain way, maybe you should seek as much clarification from him first. When a scholar or a well known Muslim speaker makes a mistake in public, the first thing you should do is understand the context, seek as much clarification from the scholar as possible as you can and ask whether they may have changed their views or not, it’s not up to an ignorant layman to look down on him or undermine his credibility and call him a “sellout”, if I were you I would be fearing for my Imaan right now.

Also I think I watched the full ICNA lecture a long time ago and Yasir Qadhi didn’t say anything wrong here. There’s nothing wrong with being proud as long as you’re pride is within the limits of the shariah. A father can be proud of his son, the Prophet ﷺ was proud to be descendant of Abd al-Mutallib etc.

Again, Yasir Qadhi didn’t say anything wrong here either. The Ashari, Maturidi and Athari schools of Aqeedah have produced many great scholars and a Muslim layman is not an innovator for following any of these 3 schools of creed. You’re not an innovator if you follow Ibn Taymiyyah or Imam Ghazali even though those 2 great scholars had opposing creeds. The more depth you dive into Aqeedah, the more complex and academic it becomes and your average layman Muslim is not obliged to know everything, he’s only obliged to know the doctrines and practices that are essential (Allah’s oneness, 6 articles of faith etc). Speculative theology is a very complex and academic discussion and this should be left to the scholars and one’s belief in Islam and Sunnism isn’t defined by speculative theology. Sadly, the streets are debating them.

What is obligatory for Muslims to follow is the beliefs and the practices that are essential and are decisive.

 

[Omar del Sur]

Yasir Qadhi is a garden variety sellout to the West, there is no reason to defend him and I don't care what any defense of him has to say. Rejecting "scholars" who are blatantly sellouts to the West and who go against basic teachings of Islam is no problem anymore than answering 2+2 with 4 is a problem. I think I see why the Sufi Hamza Yusuf gets invited to the white house. Hold Sufi views and you're welcome at the white house and on Oprah Winfrey (you can probably get in those magazines geared for women at the grocery store checkout too), hold Salafi views and everyday your viewpoint becomes closer to being borderline outlawed.

 

[Omar del Sur]

to defend this guy would be like trying to cover all the holes in swiss cheese


edit: (btw, just realized the channel has some stuff of Abu Khadeejah.... I do not support Abu Khadeejah, I don't listen to him and I don't see him as a real representation for Salafiyyah.... I agree with Salafiyyah but I don't support the SPUBS group)

He said the USA was ya'juj and ma'juj?

People can make mistakes. Hafid Suyuti said Qiyamah will take place 1500 AD. The infallible is the prophet, the speech of anyone else can be rejected

 

[Abdalla]

I think Yassir Qadhi is very much misunderstood when it comes to yajuj wa me juj. I listened to his 2 hour lecture on that topic, he didn’t say half of what people accuse him of

That’s ridiculous
